Members of the Mobile Junction community are feeling petrified after a quadruple shooting Saturday.

Sunday, the pastor of New Salem Missionary Baptist Church, which is in the neighborhood of where the shooting happened, asked people to pray for the family of the 37-year-old man who died and the three others, ranging in age from 28 to 45, who were also shot.

"I've been pastoring New Salem for about seven years and this is the first thing that has happened since I've been in this community," Pastor Bernard Martinear said.

Deputies said a group of men were drinking in a vacant lot in the 2000 block of Elm Street Southwest near Bessemer. The group began arguing, which led to two men pulling out guns and opening fire.

Martinear said that the incident has scared members of the close-knit community.

"Members have called and shared their concerns and ask for prayer," he said. "We are all hurting right now. Even though we're not involved in it, but we're hurting because we serve the community."

Officials said there hasn't been a homicide in the Mobile Junction community in the past 10 years.

Deputies are searching for the two shooters. Law enforcement officials said the community is not in any danger.
